Solution

Let $$$u=4 x$$$.

Then $$$du=\left(4 x\right)^{\prime }dx = 4 dx$$$ (steps can be seen »), and we have that $$$dx = \frac{du}{4}$$$.

Therefore,

$${\color{red}{\int{e^{4 x} d x}}} = {\color{red}{\int{\frac{e^{u}}{4} d u}}}$$

Apply the constant multiple rule $$$\int c f{\left(u \right)}\, du = c \int f{\left(u \right)}\, du$$$ with $$$c=\frac{1}{4}$$$ and $$$f{\left(u \right)} = e^{u}$$$:

$${\color{red}{\int{\frac{e^{u}}{4} d u}}} = {\color{red}{\left(\frac{\int{e^{u} d u}}{4}\right)}}$$

The integral of the exponential function is $$$\int{e^{u} d u} = e^{u}$$$:

$$\frac{{\color{red}{\int{e^{u} d u}}}}{4} = \frac{{\color{red}{e^{u}}}}{4}$$

Recall that $$$u=4 x$$$:

$$\frac{e^{{\color{red}{u}}}}{4} = \frac{e^{{\color{red}{\left(4 x\right)}}}}{4}$$

Therefore,

$$\int{e^{4 x} d x} = \frac{e^{4 x}}{4}$$

Add the constant of integration:

$$\int{e^{4 x} d x} = \frac{e^{4 x}}{4}+C$$

Answer

$$$\int e^{4 x}\, dx = \frac{e^{4 x}}{4} + C$$$A
